On Friday. the Dallas Cowboys absorbed a few injury-related situations as tight end Luke Schoonmaker and safety Israel Mukuamu both exited early. Schoonmaker is of interest in this area as the Cowboys have seen him deal with a variety of things in his first official offseason with the team. Dallas drafted Schoonmaker out of Michigan in the second round last year and saw him play sparingly as a rookie. He had shoulder surgery to begin the offseason and missed OTAs with a hamstring issue.

We have more detail about Schoonmaker’s current situation pop up on Saturday. While Mike McCarthy mentioned that he would be back on Monday (the Cowboys are off on Sunday) it was reported that the tight end is dealing with a groin injury and is day-to-day.

Hopefully Schoonmaker heals up soon and is ready to return to the team on Monday as McCarthy noted. The tight end room obviously features Jake Ferguson at the top, but players like Peyton Hendershot and Brevyn Spann-Ford are going to want to take advantage of their opportunities. Being a second-round pick from a year ago can only carry Schoonmaker so far.
